Mobility Limitation Clinical Trial
Official title:
Comparison of the Effectiveness of Different Myofascial Release Techniques for the Pectoralis Minor Muscle
The aim of this study was to compare the effects of self-myofascial release, myofascial release with a physiotherapist and instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization (IASTM) techniques for the pectoralis minor muscle on pectoralis minor muscle length, rounded shoulder posture, glenohumeral joint total rotation range of motion (ROM) and skin temperature in asymptomatic individuals.

Primary | pectoralis minor length | The length of the pectoralis minor muscle will be evaluated by the physiotherapist by calculating the pectoralis minor index (PMI), which is an objective evaluation method. In the calculation of PMI, the distance between the inferomedial of the coracoid process and the caudal edge of the 4th rib in the sternum will be evaluated with a tape measure to measure the length of the pectoralis minor muscle, and the values will be recorded in centimeters. Then, the measured pectoralis minor muscle length value will be calculated by dividing the participant's height in centimeters multiplied by 100. The reference value for PMI is 7.44%. | Baseline (first assessment) | |
Secondary | pectoralis minor length | The length of the pectoralis minor muscle will be evaluated by the physiotherapist by calculating the pectoralis minor index (PMI), which is an objective evaluation method. In the calculation of PMI, the distance between the inferomedial of the coracoid process and the caudal edge of the 4th rib in the sternum will be evaluated with a tape measure to measure the length of the pectoralis minor muscle, and the values will be recorded in centimeters. Then, the measured pectoralis minor muscle length value will be calculated by dividing the participant's height in centimeters multiplied by 100. The reference value for PMI is 7.44%. | Immediately after the intervention (second assessment) | |
Secondary | rounded shoulder posture | The distance between the posterior border of the acromion and the table will be measured using a ruler while the patient is lying on her back, and the values will be recorded in cm | Baseline (first assessment) | |

Secondary | glenohumeral joint total rotation ROM | The total value of the internal and external rotation angles of the glenohumeral joint will be measured with a digital inclinometer. After the inclinometer is placed on the patient's forearm, the glenohumeral joint total ROM will be recorded by passively externally and internally rotating the arms in the 90° flexion-90° abduction position. | Baseline (first assessment) | |

Secondary | skin temperature | An infrared skin thermometer will be used to measure skin temperature. | Immediately after the intervention (second assessment) | |
Secondary | number of trigger points | The presence of myofascial trigger points in the pectoralis minor muscle will be evaluated manually according to the Travel and Simons criteria. The total number will be recorded. | Baseline (first assessment) | |
Secondary | number of trigger points | The presence of myofascial trigger point (MTN) in the pectoralis minor muscle will be evaluated manually according to the Travel and Simons criteria. The total number will be recorded. | Immediately after the intervention (second assessment) | |
Secondary | pressure pain threshold | In order to evaluate the pain threshold of the pectoralis minor muscle, a pressure algometer (Baseline Push-Pull Force Gauge®, Fabrication Enterprises, Inc.) that can measure the pressure in pounds (Lb) and kilograms (kg), with a 1 cm diameter circular rubber disc attached to the piston at the end, will be used. Measurements will be recorded in kg/cm². | Baseline (first assessment) | |
